5:30 - Howard Stelzer

Howard Stelzer has been active as a composer and performer of electronic music since 1992. His visceral improvised music utilizes the qualities inherent to cassette tape and tape players; namely hiss, the roll of tape across play heads, the crackle of dirt caught inside old players, play speed altered manually by pressure from fingers applied to the tape's reels. Stelzer's work tends to employ space and silence as well as gritty low-fidelity noise, and is almost always centered on the physicality of live performance.Stelzer is a member of the BSC, a large electro-acoustic orchestra led by sax player Bhob Rainey, and the group Skeletons Out, with Jay Sullivan. He also operates the Intransitive Recordings label for electro-acoustic and improvised music. and regularly hosts sound-art, electronic and improvised music concerts by visiting and regional artists in the Boston area, where he lives. howardstelzer.com

6:30 - Goatslut

Goatslut tends to cause a lot of problems in class. usually by throwing paper airplanes and putting boards with nails in them on the Teacher's chair. Goatslut enjoys multiple sex partners. We can no longer tell the difference between our live performances and our solitary, treacherous excursions late at night on the john. Goatslut touches itself on the bus in front of kids. Goatslut will key your car. We don't believe in observing the fine line between fucking and making love. We like to meditate while sitting on the washing machine. One of the members has a poster of Aretha Franklin on the wall of their apartment and this has been a steady, ongoing source of tension between this member and the other member of the group. Goatslut hates their hometown but enjoys their Mom's homestyle cooking. Goatslut used to have a bass player but this member committed suicide in 2006. Due surely in no small part to this memb ers inability to sit through a complete round of "Anne of Green Gables". (Goatslut has a drinking game called Anne of Green Gables that we play after shows). Goatslut could tell you more about Him/Her Self, but doesn't think you want to know.

10:00 - Vic Rawlings / Tim Feeney

Tim Feeney and Vic Rawlings have performed as a duo since 2005. Their music explores an unpredictable relationship with making sounds, achieved by elaborate preparation of acoustic soundboxes, such as drums or cello, and expanded via original electronic instruments , ranging from naked circuitboards to amplified kitchen objects. They focus on the metamusical potential of unstable sounds and silences, exploring austere combinations of sound and the otherworldly ripple effects that pulse through a silent space or alert ears. The group has toured throughout the Eastern United States, and will release its first CD, In Six Parts, on the Sedimental label in spring 2007. timfeeney.com/feeneyrawlings

















10:30 - Nmperign


















Nmperign has been hailed the world over as the leading purveyors of whatever that strange thing they do is. Their palette of sounds makes laptops seem as flexible as doorbells, and their precise but wildly unpredictable improvisations would have you at the edge of your seat if you weren't so afraid of the noise you would make getting there. Fierce and fragile, lush and fractured, nmperign is tough to pin down and all the better for it.
